What do you mean "horrible"? Heck, that little jewel would look good in my front yard on blocks!

It just ain't fair that you put up a negative post to try and keep other folks from biddin'. I know you want it BAD.:D Man, that thing'd look good in the garage right by the 'Stream.:D :D

[1BadAction]

camel hump heads... rofl! i wonder if it has a 3/4 race cam.

would be a good car to de-hillbillyize and use as a project, but not at 2,600 bucks. he must be on dope, that car needs everything.

LOL! yeup, we know greg has his eye on it;)

[sms]

That motor is about as clean as the seats. And OH that dune buggy steering wheel is sweet.

[at100plus]

Greg, looks just like yours, except it has 22 years of hard abuse, neglect, improper mods, mickey mouse rigging and it's just.... well.....horrible!

[Hot Shot Merc]

Man those years sucked anyway.You couldnt give me one of those:eek:

better than anything dodge or ford had. c4s will still outhandle just about anything either of them have, even to this day.

[MERC1000]

Shoot, every year corvette blows, that one is nicer than most...

[Hot Shot Merc]

I raced many of those turds at the track with my lightning and Harley truck.Not impressed at all with a mid 14 second corvette.I do love vettes but those suck balls.:D

[1BadAction]

so you raced bone stock 20 year old vettes and beat them. good for you, heres a cookie :p

[Hot Shot Merc]

I beat the chevy Corvrette stock for stock with a Ford truck:eek:
Hey Jim thanx for the cookie.It was good.:p
Just playing around Jim.I know you cheer for Chevy.I wont beat on
ya too hard about them:D

[Scream And Fly]

I always liked the C4. Like Jim said, they can very easily hold their own with today's supercars on the track. As for their 1/4 mile performance - look at the era they were made in. The C4 was a very good car with the L98, but it really woke up with the LT5 and LT1. I'll always like the L98 TPI though - almost a classic now.

Rob, a GMC Syclone or Typhoon would give your trucks a hard schooling - and they are just S-10 trucks :)

Can I have a cookie too? Better yet, can I have some cheese fries? :)

[godspeed]

greg will buy it and post that pic in his avatar lol

[Scream And Fly]

Back off guys, that auction is all mine!

[Ziemer]

5 mins left!!! Hurry up and get your bids in. :D :D :cool:

[1BadAction]

good ole TPI. not all that impressive in its N/A form compared to the new stuff, its almost like its made for turbocharging. GM hot cammed l98, stock heads, 8.5psi, single turbo, 20 degrees total timing and pump gas... 500hp and 611lb-ft of tq :eek: TQ peak was 3800 rpm :o stock heads/cam are really piss-poor, the potential is there for MASSIVE power with a good pair of fast burn heads and better cam grind.

[Hot Shot Merc]

Greg Thats funny because I raced a syclone almost every thursday night for two years.I could see him in my side mirror every time:eek:

All kidding aside,I loved those Syclones and Typhoons when they came out.Very cool trucks.:)

[heath brinkley]

not like there's a whole lot better you can do with a 84 Vette though

[Raceman]

Sure there is............ the platform itself is excellent. All it needs is a new GM crate 502 with a 6 speed and upgraded wheels and rubber and it's a world beater for cheap.

[heath brinkley]

true, just that it was a UGLY car. I've ofter thought that would be a cool cheap project for a street vette. Big block, suspension upgrades, 6 speed, 18x10's. I'd pick a post 89 though, at least they were a little better lookin'

[Hot Shot Merc]

Heath there is a guy around town that has one that did just that.It runs 10's:eek: But DAMN is it UGLY:eek: Its gold and has all this Mexican looking crap added everywhere:D

As you stated tpi falls flat on its face once you get up to around 3500. Most guys are doing like you said but switching to a hsr and ditching the tpi. The l98 heads weren't really piss poor, with some work they could make some decent power for a stock factory cast head. Another problem is the fact that you do anything serious, your gonna spend a LOT of time burning new custom proms for the maf system. They looked pretty cool under the hood though:o

[Scream And Fly]

Here's one for you - Z51 with 4096 original miles. Never seen rain or anything.
